This question already has an answer here:
- Prefixing variable assignment doesn't work with echo 1 answer
- bash -c variable does not get assigned 1 answer
I tried these variations, but none of them do nothing, i.e, do not print 5
linux@linux:~$ bash -c 'var=5 printf "$var"'
linux@linux:~$ bash -c "export var=5 echo $var"
linux@linux:~$ bash -c "export var=5 && echo $var"
linux@linux:~$ bash -c "var=5; echo $var"
linux@linux:~$ var=5 sudo printf "$var"
linux@linux:~$ var=5 sudo -E printf "$var"
linux@linux:~$ bash --version
